Thought this was cool. Reminds me of the days I used to work at a Toyota manufacturing plant.

Really? It sounds like it is from a small evil ice cream truck.

How cool would it be to know if your car was in that video and seeing when it was born! Nice find!

Very cool video. I love the white gloves the engine assemblers use. Is that a coke bottle over the shifter when the robot lifts the engine up?

cool stuff.

I know when you build your own bmw they send you something like this except its for your actual car. They show the VIN# on the assembly line... pretty cool

I think a lot of the engine 'break-in' we're all concerned about happens way before we even get to touch the car..

awesome vid though, and I can totally see those japanese using some ice cream truck chime rather than an obnoxious beeping. I wonder which would drive you insane first!

Given all the assembly/design problems this platform has had already, I am surprised to see that the workers weren't intoxicated or half asleep while assembling the cars...

If you pay close attention, you can see that the line closer to the camera is for USDM and the the line further from the camera is for JDM/Europe/Aus/etc. markets from the clearance/marker lights.
